I made a mistake, 10% of electricity is gas.

Due to the fact that nuclear is base load and gas plants are mostly used for grid compensation, it would result (according to estimates) in a 1-2% increase in gas usage.

Sorry, are you saying that keeping the nuclear reactors online will increase gas use by 1-2%?

Oh, that wasn't clear, sorry. Taking them offline would result in an estimated increase of gas by 1-2%.
